John Lennon's decayed tooth fetched the grand sum of £19,000 at auction last week. Unconfirmed reports have suggested that the buyer was a dentist from Canada - which I hope this means it was bought as an investment to lure more people into his practice. The idea that it was bought for not much less than the average graduate wage in the UK, for pleasure, is a bit strange.
But, by using the power of maths, we now know how much John Lennon's mouth was worth!
£608,000*
Impressive, I think you'll agree...
* That's 32 (the number of teeth in most adult human mouths) multiplied by £19,000, fact fans!
